Episode #57: Healthy nutrition is the foundation for a Soldier to reach their peak performance. What we put into our bodies will determine the output we are able to achieve. Thus, over the years the Army has sought to provide the force with the most nutritious meals while ensuring Soldiers can choose the meals that taste the best to them. To achieve this, the Go for Green initiative provides a color-coding system for Soldiers to decide which foods to consume in the dining facilities. On this episode, CPT Garett Pyle meets with MAJ Christin Jessen and Denise Laursen to provide a better understanding to how Soldiers should fuel their bodies and the importance of nutrition.
